That also pushes Hayes primarily to the bench... brought only at times as a defensive stopper.

I’m not sure Sasser should be starting.  But we know what Hayes is and it’s not going to help with winning in the present or future.  Sasser should be getting minutes ahead of Hayes.

sasser isnt anything more than a potential sparkplug off the bench.

Which is better than Hayes' ceiling.

I doubt they bench Hayes 10 days before the trade deadline. Wouldn't shock me if they did after if he is still around.

Likely but we don't really know what he is yet and the coach is very inconsistent with how he displays him so hard to tell what he can become if given more opportunity.

A GM would have to be as bad as Weaver to even think about trading for Hayes. That's a high bar.

Nah. These guys get traded quite often. Let's a team get a few month look up close and see if they want to offer a new deal 

As long as you don't give up much it's fine.

Read a stat that said Burks shot 59% from three in his last 9 games.

Williams with 5 bench players on the court at the same time.
